Description
This smoking pipe was recovered from the Thomson-Walker archaeological site in Simcoe
County, Ontario. Occupied during the second quarter of the seventeenth century,
the site was a palisaded Huron-Wendat village containing 20-30 longhouses.
Similar to other Iroquoian effigy pipes, this pipe mimics the shape of a bird.
